I personally think it was fitting for the Diehl to get beat on the final play to seal the deal for the Steelers. I hope the coaching staff think about this decision for a long time. Why would you fool around with the Chemistry of the Oline by starting Deihl?

It has been a while since I have seen Eli get hit as much I have seen today. Deihl was getting beat left and right. It was pathetic. They had Bradshaw lined up on his side to help him out. Bradshaw is a linemen. I understand TC have history with Diehl, but we're not in 2007. The guy is way past his prime. He hasn't played well since 2008, but TC has to be loyal. This loyalty thing has got to stop because it's killing our chances of winning.

now this I kinda agree with... 66 is just getting old, and that's it.

Get used to it because Locklear will never start another game for the Giants. They love Diehl and they won't bench him. Locklear probably won't be on the team next year.

Diehl is not a quality starter at any of the offensive line positions. His best days are behind him. Locklear should be starting with Diehl being used in the jumbo packages only. Diehl needs to be shown the door after this season.

This Bull Manure stuff about not losing your job to injury is going to cost us our QB. It already cost us a win. How about losing your job because of bad play? TC?

Coughlin is 66 too.........and he has lost it............putting Deihl in was ridiculous

this would not be like Eli but maybe It is time to go to TC and tell him if you want to see me injured keep playing DD.

He should've been shown the door 2 years ago. lol. He is probably our worst linemen.

Well, this move worked out exactly how all of us expected. I almost always defend the coaches' decisions -- they've earned that. But this one was pure nonsense from the start.

The O-Line wasn't broke...there was no need to "fix" it.

James Brewer another OL bust.He wont be far behind Petrus.

I think it's time we really question the coaching staff's decisions and analysis of offensive linemen talent. We haven't even done a good job drafting quality guys with the exception of Beatty.

Sad, but good possibility.

So many plays where he was beat and pressure forced Eli into early or mistake throws.

Can't blame one person but DD was flat out awful and the decision to insert him back into the starting lineup has to be explained by the coaches given that performance.
